Evidence for the neuropeptide cholecystokinin as an antagonist of opiate analgesia

TL;DR: A physiological role for cholecystokinin as a specific opiate antagonist in analgesia-mediating systems is suggested and a similar mode of action may explain other behavioral effects of chole CyStokinin, such as suppression of food intake.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-invasive Access to the Vagus Nerve Central Projections via Electrical Stimulation of the External Ear: fMRI Evidence in Humans.

TL;DR: Findings in humans provide evidence in humans that the central projections of the ABVN are consistent with the "classical" central vagal projections and can be accessed non-invasively via the external ear.
Journal ArticleDOI

Medial preoptic area and onset of maternal behavior in the rat.

TL;DR: It was concluded that the medial preoptic area (MPOA) is involved not only in the maintenance of maternal behavior but in the hormonally mediated onset of mothers behavior and the onset of maternalbehavior induced in virgin females by pup stimulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brain activation during vaginocervical self-stimulation and orgasm in women with complete spinal cord injury: fMRI evidence of mediation by the vagus nerves.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the Vagus nerves provide a spinal cord-bypass pathway for vaginal-cervical sensibility in women with complete spinal cord injury above the level of entry into spinal cord of the known genitospinal nerves.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genital Sensory Field: Enlargement by Estrogen Treatment in Female Rats

TL;DR: Recordings of neuronal activity in the pudendal, genitofemoral, and pelvic nerves indicate that the sensory fields of these three nerves are the perineum, the caudal abdomen, and the vagino-cervical area and rectum, respectively.
